That's a wrong conclusion to draw from the term "microframework." Unlike Django which defines in no uncertain terms what you get from it and what you can do with it, in Flask it's all up to you.
Yes, for some projects I want admin panels built for me; sometimes I don't. Sometimes my front end is SPA and all I need is a REST middleware talking to a database. If the database is supported through SQLAlchemy, even better -- there's a framework for that.
Some people will like Flask's approach and others won't; my only suggestion is to pick the right tool for the job and run with that. For my projects it's Flask because it's easy to reason about and most people can pick Flask up in a matter of days rather than weeks or months with monolithic frameworks.
